Guitarist and sometime character actor Boz Boorer (real name Johannas Incaghan) officially refused to play in the USA because of all the commotion between the USA and its banning of any meat from the EU (including the UK).
Boorer denounced the way America handled the situation and protested last night. Originally to perform at the Nickelodeon Children's Awards 2001, his much anticipated team up with Sclub7 was scrapped at the last minute. Instead maturing glammer Simon LeBon replaced Boorer.
"We are sorry that (Boz) felt he needed to sacrifice millions of kids' entertainment for something as insignificant as hoof and mouth or something like that," Darren Huxtable, director of Nicktoons, said.
Boorer wouldn't comment but did issue a press release:
"I am Boz Boorer and I am protesting the way you American's have banned hoof and mouth! Look, what goes on in your bedroom is your own business!!! Why is your country so uptight about sex? It's two bodies exchanging an orgasm...mostly! So if you ban it and blame it on the UK and Europe, then I have one thing to do, I will ban playing in your country. I don't know what hoof and mouth entails but I do know that I have an open mind and sexual orientation or acts are insignificant when compared to the rest of the ills in society like homeless or rape. I swear you Americans are big time idiots!!!"
